Clarify Rules For L0*al No,,ee ' • w imtuit nnriTTTrniTB Nurse Licensing The Illinois Department of Registration and Education is moving to modernize and clarify the rules by which it licenses and regulates the nursing profession. Toward that end, the Department has scheduled public hearings Friday in Chicago and Thursday Nov. 1, in Springfield. !; Announcing the public Rearing dates, Department Director Joan G. Anderson said that the proposed new rules and regulations for the Illinois Nursing act "will allow ap­ plicants for nursing licenses, nursing schools, and other interested persons to un­ derstand more readily the Department's procedures". Among the changes from the current rules and regulations is a provision to tighten up requirements for nursing candidates who have failed the licensing examination in the past - which the director said, Vis designed to assure minimum competence." •. It is the first overall revision •in seven years of the rules and [regulations for the ad­ ministration of the state's •Nursing act. ; -"•#>- The first public hearing is scheduled for 10 a.m. Friday, Oct. 26, in the Department's offices on the 17th floor at 55 E. Jackson Blvd., Chicago. The second public hearing is slated for 10 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 1, in the department's offices on the 3rd floor of 320 West Washington street, Springfield. Interested persons who cannot attend either public hearing may submit written views and comments on the revised rules and regulations to Henry Arkin in the Depart­ ment's Chicago offices. They must be submitted by Nov. 2. All testimony - both written and taken at the public hearings - will be considered in shaping the final form of the rules and regulations. Basically, the proposed rules and regulations set forth requirements and procedures for licensure by examination, including re-examination after failure, and licensure by en­ dorsement. And they also set forth standards for Department approval of nursing education programs. Affected are candidates for both registered professional nurses (RN) an<J licensed practical nurses (LPN). Under the proposal, < RN candidates who fail the licensing examination six times will be required to complete an entire nursing program before being eligible for a seventh examination.

Q.I hear a lot about the Senior Action Centers, in Chicago and Springfield, which are operated by Lieutenant Governor Dave O'Neal's office. I wonder if the SAC's are doing a worthwhile job? A.Maybe these facts will help you decide. In 1978, compared to 1976, over five times more senior citizens and the disabled were served by either telephoning and writing the Senior Action centers or con­ tacting our offices in person. For instance,: in 1976, 7,700 persons were given assistance, while, in 1978,40,300 elderly and disabled were helped in finding answers to their questions. In 1977, Lieutenant Governor4 O'Neil took over operation of the SAC's and 23,500 persons were served that year, over three times more than 1976. During the first nine months of 1979, the SAC's provided ser­ vice to 33,800 persons, com­ pared to 33,370 for the first nine months of 1978. The credit for this sharp increase in service to senior citizens and the disabled can be shared with my Senior Action center staff by the many hundreds of people in govern­ ment on all levels, state, county and local, who are dedicated to helping these people 'cut through all kinds of bureaucratic red tape. Q. What is the purpose of the Senior Action centers and what are the major problems senior citizens and the disabled share? A. The SAC's are not referral services, Staff members take down information from the persons who contact them and make anywhere from one to three more telephone calls to find the answers to their questions. The senior citizen or the disabled person only has to make one telephone call and the SAC staff does the rest and then follows this up by re- contacting the person who initiated the request. In this way, senior citizens and the disabled get direct answers to their questions.

If your job has involved some physical activity, you are probably in good con­ dition. If you've had a sit- down job, but followed a daily routine of exercise, stay with the exercise pro­ gram and just don't sit down permanently. Consider your age and health if you plan to start an exercise program. Con­ sult your physician before making a drastic change in your daily routine. Diet is an. important consideration. Meal times are fairly regulated during the working years but some retirees alter eating habits because their overall sche­ dule is changed. In summary, successful retirement is not a matter of sitting in a rocking chair and doing nothing; it is more appropriately a matter of doing the things you need to do to stay healthy, active and happy. This means, in addition to exercise and diet, you need to continue reason­ able social activity. For between-meal snacks, give children carrot sticks, cheese, a cracker, or a glass of milk or fruit juice. Get out in the open this fall and enjoy walking, and the color and beauty of this sea­ son.

Most of the successful businesses in our area, including the agricultural producers, are models of the success formula.
